Gel Electrophoresis Tray Assembly
This plastic and aluminum tray assembly is designed specifically for holding and running agarose or polyacrylamide gels in horizontal electrophoresis instruments. It fits standard models like Bio-Rad Mini-Sub Cell and lacks any integrated optical or measuring devices, classifying it as a part under HTS 9027.90.54.00 for electrophoresis equipment parts. The component ensures precise gel casting and sample separation without detection functionality.
